Jenny Sunesson (b. 1973) is a Swedish artist predominantly working with sound. Her practice ranges from field recording and live collages to conceptual sound art and video. Sunesson uses her own life as a stage for her dark, tragic and sometimes comical re-contextualised work where real and invented characters and derogated stereotypes, collaborate in the alternate story of hierarchies and normative power structures in society.

Les forces religieuses, politiques, culturelles et économiques influencent le monde moderne. Il s’agit de conflits et d’antagonies bien réels, idéologiquement chargés, qui déchirent le monde dans un contexte de formes virulentes de polarisation idéologique, de nationalisme de droite et de fondamentalisme religieux.

As part of the 'Borderline Physical' PHD Project and the "Spirits in Complexity" PEEK Project, this iteration investigates the auditory landscape of a specific fridge in a specific café in Vienna, Austria. The fridge is captured into a physically informed model, recreating its surprisingly complex sound emissions. This model is presented as an installation on-site, next to the fridge whose current working status is unknown (it was broken recently). At the SAR the model is treated as a musical instrument and freely used in complete disregard of physical constraints, leading up to a musical performance that explores a different form of artistic exploration of our sonic environment.

The theoretical wisdom of the Epic theater derives from the conceptual perspective of Bertolt Brecht toward communication and performing arts in "Der Rundfunk als Kommunikationsapparat" (1932). Brecht's version of the radio reminds the participatory politics in the internet, which he later theorizes for theatre-qua-critique of the aristotelian drama of binding the spectator to the fiction ideologically, in the vicious cycles of pre- learned codes, the traditional and phony wisdoms of clans and classes, where the mere potential for change is to turn into a "petit bourgeois".
